The Future Of Mobility with Toyota’s Senior Vice President of Automotive Operations Jack Hollis

Other Side Of The Business Card

Welcome to “Other Side Of The Business Card” with your host, corporate transformation entrepreneur and strategic consultant Haig Armaghanian. Having worked as the trusted advisor to some of the world's biggest businesses, Haig's mission with this show is to give you access to the mindset and thought processes from some of the world’s top leaders to discover what drives these innovative individuals.

This week on the show Haig is joined by Jack Hollis - Senior Vice President of Automotive Operations at Toyota. Despite holding a seriously senior role at one of the world’s most revered companies, Jack Hollis is quite the opposite of what you might imagine a senior lead of a huge organisation to be. This warm, engaging, energetic and people-orientated veteran of his sector has risen through the ranks of Toyota and is still as passionate about the ‘guest experience’ as he ever was. The fit between Jack and Toyota makes a lot of sense when you hear him passionately talk about his own origins as a pro baseball player constantly chasing improvement and the vehicle giant’s focus on the Japanese concept of ‘Kaizen’ or continuous improvement.

In this episode you will learn:

• Why Jack’s biggest focus is on people
• His passion after almost 30 years in the automotive world
• Why relationships with manufacturer and dealers is essential
• How your people can enhance your product
• The changes coming for transport sector
• What effect government mandates are having for consumers
• How the focus of 'car companies' need to shift to providing mobility solutions
• Predictions of the shared vehicle model

As you will hear on this show, Other Side Of The Business Card is a look behind the scenes of how high achievers create and run multi-million-pound companies, what strategies they use to scale businesses and what knowledge and insights allow them to create successes, across all areas of their lives, not just in the boardroom.

Having worked across 40+ countries Haig’s philosophy is to build passionate partnerships, so expect a deeper level of conversation than you might normally hear from titans of industry, as he uncovers what makes top performers great.
